Democrat Jerry Nadler says Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas doesn't want to overturn interracial marriage because he is married to a white woman and Mitch McConnell is married to an Asian-American during debate on codifying gay marriage

Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler suggested on Tuesday that Justice Clarence Thomas did not suggest revisiting the Supreme Court ruling that legalized interracial marriage because he himself is married to a white woman.

Debate on the House floor grew heated as the Democrat-majority chamber prepares to advance its Respect For Marriage Act, aimed at codifying same-sex marriage.

The bill is a response to Thomas' concurring opinion in the high court's decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health, which saw the right to an abortion stripped out of federal law and returned to state jurisdictions.

While Justice Samuel Alito made clear in the main opinion that he was solely focused on abortion, Thomas set off alarm bells within the progressive community by suggesting the court could next revisit the landmark cases that legalized same-sex marriage, same-sex intimacy and the right for married couples to have contraception.

Nadler noted on Tuesday that Thomas 'didn't mention Loving though, for some reason - which is interracial marriage,' in reference to the 1967 ruling in Loving v. Virginia.

'Maybe the fact that he's intermarried, and so is Senator McConnell,' Nadler said. 'Maybe that has something to do with it.'

It's not clear what prompted him to bring McConnell into the conversation. The Kentucky Republican is married to Elaine Chao, a Chinese-American immigrant who served as Donald Trump's Secretary of Transportation.

The difference, Front-Butt, is that Mitch, and Clarence are married to biological WOMEN.

Marriage between a man and a woman regardless of ethnicity is still the norm for mankind. The marriage can lead to children.

Homo marriage, no matter how much the argue, goes completely against God’s plan.

Democrats see racism everywhere and on everyone and on everything.

It’s the only thing that has gotten them power at any level. Without keeping the racism card available forever, democrats would cease to exist as a viable political party.

And I suggest that Jerry Nadler didn’t want Roe vs. Wade overturned only because he was never aborted.

Virginia, among other states, would have disagreed with you 60-odd years ago. Hence the Virginia v. Loving decision.

Legalization of gay “marriage” wasn’t just an attack on our legal system, and rights of the voters but an assault on rational thought. There is no such thing as gay marriage and a license from the government doesn’t make it true.

Thats why it the Old Testament it (Homosexual love) is called an abomination in the eyes of God. Many Pagans call this sinful as well. Roman’s called it the “Greek Sickness” The French call gays “The English Disease.” (or at least they did before WW II_)
